death blossom
American military slang from the war in Iraq: the tendency of Iraqi security forces, in response to receiving a little fire from the enemy, to either run away or do the “death blossom,” spraying fire indiscriminately in all directions. Reported on Globalsecurity.org

Death Blossom is an Arab thing. I talked to many of our military guys that have tried to train Arabs and they all have DB stories.
